Dynamite Kid - R.I.P.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/news/wwe-l ... li=BBnbfcL




© WWE Wrestling legend Dynamite Kid died on Dec. 5, his 60th birthday, the WWE confirmed Wednesday.

The British ring phenom, whose real name is Tommy Billington, was one half of the British Bulldogs along with his cousin, Davey Boy Smith.

Billington's nephew, Davey Boy Smith Jr., tweeted, "It deeply saddens me to announce the passing of Tom Billington the 'Dynamite Kid.' I was really happy and glad I got to see Dynamite one last time last June in the UK. . Dynamite was certainly an inspiration to myself and many others and really revolutionized professional Wrestling as we now [sic] it today. He flew high, and gave it his all every match. Thanks for everything and sad to have lost another family member. Rest In Peace Dyno."

"It's with great sadness I have to inform you all that The 'Dynamite Kid' Tom Billington on his birthday has passed away," wrestling trainer Marty Jones tweeted. "A true British ambassador for wrestling worldwide. RIP 'Kid'. Condolences to Mark and his family."

Billington began wrestling when he was 13 years old and toured Britain by the time he was just 16, and began his career with Stampede Wrestling in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, when he was 20, The Daily Mail reported.

Billington worked in Japan before signing with the World Wrestling Federation as one half of the British Bulldogs in 1984.

He broke his back in the ring in a 1986 match at Madison Square Garden, nearly ending his career — but he came back to the WWF, where he stayed until 1988.

He then signed with Stampede Wrestling and worked in Japan.

Billington's final match was in October 1996, when The Sun reports his body "degenerated" and he suffered a seizure at the airport the following day.

In 1997, Billington lost the use of his left leg and was relegated to a wheelchair for the rest of his life.

He also reportedly suffered from several heart problems and had a stroke in 2013.

In late 2016, a visibly unhealthy Billington appeared in a documentary and his wife, Dot, launched a GoFundMe to help pay his medical bills.

The Dynamite Kid is survived by wife Dot, daughters Browyne and Amaris and son Marek.

I haven't watched WWE in several weeks.
I heard many consider last week's Raw to be the worst ever. :shock:

Nah..its just internet nerds pissed Lucha House Party continues to make fools of the boring tag team. Rousey is great with new moves not just same Cena Brock boredom matches. Rollins Ambrose far from boring
Jani Lane and Bret Michaels should form a band called "Nelson II"

Word circulating that Larry "The Axe" Hennig passed away today.

He made it to 82. Don't see that too much these days, re ex-pro wrestlers.

Beat me to it. Kind of sad that his son, "Mr. Perfect" Curt Hennig died before he did...

TLC thoughts? About time Asuka won a women's belt. And maybe we won't have to sit through another snoozer of a Corbin GM speech now, too.

Asuka held the NXT women's belt basically the whole time she was in NXT. I'm seriously not a fan of hers.

I think it says a lot when the audience chants "this is boring" during one of the co-main events. Dean v Seth should have been good. It really wasn't.

Rainbow Bright winning wasn’t a shock..it’s a good way to start Becky vs Rousey vs Flair Mania mainevent
Rocky Becky Balboa vs Flair and UFC Rousey will make the ultimate payoff
Rousey is so awesome, every big match she adds new moves, takes a lot for wwe audience to believe in UFC girl..Rousey does phenomenal making you believe she might not win and sells fantastic!
Any card without hasbeen Cena is great...Cena and his shovel returning soon..phuck
Jani Lane and Bret Michaels should form a band called "Nelson II"

Looks like WWE is burying the hatchet with The Hulkster long enough to invite him back Monday on Raw to pay tribute:

Ah, indeed he was. Looks like he's finally past that suspension after his sex tape racism incident.

If he's smart, he'll go to NXT.
While I have serious doubts that the rumors are true about the amounts they offered him... I do think it would be a better option.
